Seemingly in response to the opinion piece attacking SGA last week in the Red and Black, SGA President Katy Bowers has an opinion piece today entitled “SGA requests opinions of all”.
I have quite a few comments about her opinions, so I am going to post my responses line by line.
Creating change in a community of [...]
CNN has an article about the Princeton Review of the top party universities, and the University of Georgia makes the list at #5. West Virginia scores the top spot, as the top party school in the nation.

The newest version of the SGA Report was just sent out to all UGA students and is available here.

*Vote Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday on OASIS in Student Body Elections!*
Take the time to make [...]

My favorite quotes from the report:

“We want the organization to continue. We can’t make [...]
A quick update for the weekend.
After Action: Demosthenian Debate on SGA
The Great SGA Debate was indeed great. I was surprised at the turnout, both in the number of non-SGA people there and the small number of SOS candidates that came out to listen to student opinion. I don’t know all the SOS candidates [...]
Some interesting posts on websites for Senate candidates (all from the SOS Party, duh!):
